embed video / problem with background image

Posted in: Newspaper

Hallo,
I would like to embed a video in my website with the TagDiv Composer and the “Video Embed” and add a background image. I have uploaded and inserted the background image. However, it is not displayed (video area remains white). What can I do?
Can I also use / embed another video player in TagDiv Composer?
Thank you very much! Christiane

Hello Christiane!

You should add the full YouTube link to work if you use the Video Embed shortcode. Unfortunately, there is no point in adding the background image because it will be behind the player and won’t be visible.

Thank you!

Hi Bettina,
thanks for the information, but I would like to upload the video myself from my website and not from Youtube. Is there another solution to see the preview image in the video player? Can I insert or use another video player in Composer?
Thank you, Christiane

Hello Christiane!

You can add your video to that shortcode as well. First, upload it to your media library, then copy and paste the entire link(File URL).

Thank you!
